We only process your personal data when we have a lawful basis to do so. The lawful bases we rely on include:
Where you have given us explicit consent to process your personal data for specific purposes, such as marketing communications. You can withdraw your consent at any time.
Where processing is necessary to perform a contract with you (e.g., processing your course booking) or to take steps at your request before entering into a contract.
Where processing is necessary for our legitimate interests or those of a third party, provided your interests and fundamental rights do not override those interests. This includes improving our services and communicating with you about your bookings.
Where processing is necessary to comply with a legal obligation, such as keeping records for tax purposes.
Under the UK GDPR, you have the following rights regarding your personal data:
You have the right to request a copy of the personal data we hold about you. This is commonly known as a "subject access request". We will respond to your request within one month of receiving it.
You have the right to request that we correct any inaccurate personal data we hold about you, or complete any incomplete data.
You have the right to request that we delete your personal data in certain circumstances, including:
You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your personal data in certain circumstances, such as when you contest the accuracy of the data or when you object to processing.
You have the right to receive your personal data in a structured, commonly used, and machine-readable format, and to transmit that data to another controller.
You have the right to object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on legitimate interests (or those of a third party) as our legal basis for processing. You also have the right to object to processing for direct marketing purposes.
You have the right not to be subject to a decision based solely on automated processing, including profiling, which produces legal effects concerning you or similarly significantly affects you. We do not currently engage in automated decision-making.
To exercise any of your rights, please contact us at:
We will respond to your request within one month. We may need to verify your identity before processing your request. If your request is complex or you have made numerous requests, we may extend the response period by a further two months, in which case we will inform you of this extension.
We have implemented appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk, including:
We do not routinely transfer your personal data outside the United Kingdom. If we do need to transfer data internationally, we will ensure appropriate safeguards are in place in accordance with UK GDPR requirements.
In the event of a personal data breach that is likely to result in a risk to your rights and freedoms, we will notify the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) within 72 hours of becoming aware of the breach. If the breach is likely to result in a high risk to your rights and freedoms, we will also notify you directly without undue delay.
If you are unhappy with how we have handled your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO):
Information Commissioner's Office
